I have <xref linkend="IDValue"/>



The link is to
<sect3 xml:id="IDValue">



In PDF output this is showing as

Section 4.4.4, Long waffle title .. [8].

In my customization I have
<xsl:param name="insert.xref.page.number">yes</xsl:param>


I'd prefer either just the section number, or even
section number and page, e.g. Section 4.4.4 on Page 8

Can I customize this please?

regards

If I understood correctly what you're trying to achieve, then an
'xrefstyle' attribute on the xref might work for you.

See http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomXrefs.html#Xrefstyle

Is this any help - straight out of Bob's book, p.238-249 (3rd
edit.)


use something like <xref linkend="someID"
xrefstyle="page_ref"/>


and put this in the customization layer (change styles to
whatever you want.)


<!--

<!-- define
named xrefstyles for appendix, chapter, figure, part, sect1,sect2,
sect3 section, table (all same: "page_ref"), and for

<!--

Use of '%p' in fp_page_ref, - xref link to a formalpara - doesn't seem
to work, backwards or forward - see test code in venn.xml

So the ref. to 'p.%p' is removed in the above template.  %t for
the formalpara id works OK.&nbsp; %n is not relevant, formalpara
cannot be numbered.  If and when %p works for formalpara, replace
the above template by:


<l:template name="formalpara" style="fp_page_ref"
text="Paragraph&#x00A0;&#x201C;%t&#x201D;&#x002C;&#x00A0;&#x0070;&#x002E;%p&#x002C;"
/>


To get a 'close' page ref. in a pointer to a formal para, do something
like:


<xref linkend="id of formal para"
xrefstyle="fp_page_ref" /> in <xref linkend="id
of chapter or section containing the formal para"
xrefstyle="page_ref" />


This will at least point the reader to the right chapter or section in
a chapter.  sect1, sect2 etc. should also work to localize more
closely - untested.

 -->






I have <xref
linkend="IDValue"/>




The link is to

  <sect3 xml:id="IDValue">

           
<title>Long waffle title.</title>



In PDF output this is showing as


Section 4.4.4, Long waffle title .. [8].


In my customization I have

<xsl:param
name="insert.xref.page.number">yes</xsl:param>



I'd prefer either just the section number, or even
section number and page, e.g. Section
4.4.4 on Page 8


Can I customize this please?


regards

Or for those without Unicode Version X in front of them...

<l:template name="sect3" style="page_ref"
text='Section %n on Page %p' />

Produces

See Section 4.4.4 on Page 8

which is just what I wanted since the target was at sect3

Thanks Ron, and Jere.
